Facebook's stock price may be due for a precipitous decline but the company's market position is as firmly entrenched as a market leader in its respective space as any firm out there.

agreed (from what little knowledge I have). after your post, i might not wait 6 months or so ... sell half, keep other half permanently. my daughter has a ton of facebook as well.

when she goes to college in 15 years, will facebook even exist still or will it morph into a powerful conglomerate of buying power awesomeness? maybe i should leave all of her facebook alone and just wait and see.

man, I wish i had a time machine. (back to the future predicted 2015 world series - cubs sweep miami. Its 2015 and miami now has a MLB team ....?)


i paid for my senior year of college off of Oracle stock alone. got in at right time, got out at right time.


back to trolling for real.

While I'm not a financial advisor by trade I know they would tell you to be careful with stock investments if you're talking about money you know you'll need within a few years. That Oracle investment was clutch but these things can easily go south on you. It's wise not to put all your eggs in one basket, spread your money amongst several stocks and/or bonds to reduce the risk that your investment could completely tank.

With Facebook's PE ratio being what it is, it's not inconceivable to me that it loses 50% of its stock price in the next five years. It's also not inconceivable to me that they innovate and find a new way to take over the world, and grow it 100% over the next five years.

Point is you just don't know. So if you know you NEED the money for college soon, best to protect it.

If you can afford to gamble with it a bit, then by all means.

google makes most of its money by advertising. every single company, small or big, must play google's game.

we spend upwards of 50k a year trying to stay ahead of google's analog or analrythmic coding changes.

no one will compete with google. google's search engine is king. i dont know why google has played down pay per click advertising. i used to pay 4k per month straight to google out of my own pocket to advertise, not any more. it doesnt really help our SE placement anymore.

people like me have to sign up for google+ and we pay people good money to make our google+ accounts active and linked to our websites etc.

google is for businesses in the business of making money. facebook is for kids.
